fake omega speedmaster apollo 13
A 1:1 replica of the Speedmaster Apollo 13 anniversary edition brings one of the most talked-about mission tributes to your wrist at a fraction of the collector price. The white lacquered dial, black counters and mission-patch caseback are all reproduced to match the original's proportions and footprint. This guide explains what the watch is, what to check before you buy, and how ordering works.
What is the Apollo 13 Speedmaster tribute?
It is a modern Speedmaster Professional issued to mark the 45th anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission, recognizable by its white lacquered dial with contrasting black subdials. The design honors the mission in which the crew used a Speedmaster to time a critical engine burn.

Materials and specifications
The case is machined from 316L stainless steel and finished with a mix of brushed flanks and polished bevels, matching the original's two-tone look. The dial is built in layers, with applied indices, luminous fill on the hands and a matte black bezel insert. Dimensions follow the genuine article closely: roughly 42 mm across, about 14 mm thick and 20 mm between the lugs, so aftermarket straps fit without modification. The chronograph is operated by the usual two pushers, with a crisp start-stop reset action and a smooth winding feel.
Does the chronograph actually work?
Yes. The pushers start, stop and reset the central seconds hand, and the subdials track elapsed minutes and hours as expected. Treat it like any mechanical chronograph and avoid operating the pushers underwater.
How does sizing work?
The bracelet ships with removable links and a folding clasp, and most wrists between roughly 6.5 and 8 inches fit comfortably out of the box. Leather straps are pre-punched with several holes for quick adjustment.
Shipping and returns
Orders are packed discreetly in protective foam and shipped with tracking, typically within a few business days. Inspect the watch on arrival and keep the packaging intact; if anything is off, contact support within the stated window for an exchange or refund.
